Asking the right questions is the key to selecting the right contractor. To become a certified GAF Master Elite
™ roofing contractor, a contractor must show that they are:
Fully licensed in their state (or local area) to perform roofing work*
Adequately insured for your protection
Have a proven reputation for providing quality roofing services throughout their community
Committed to ongoing professional training to ensure quality installation
Because of GAF's stringent standards, only the top 2% of all roofing contractors have qualified as Master Elite™ contractors! Choosing a Master Elite™ Contractor is your assurance that you'll be dealing with a quality, reputable, and dependable professional contractor - not some "fly-by-nighter." (*Where licensing is available)
Factory-Certified Installation
To ensure your total satisfaction, Master Elite™ Contractors have been provided with extensive training materials developed by GAF's technical experts-allowing them to stay current in the latest roof installation techniques. In fact, every Master Elite™ Contractor is required to train their foremen using GAF's Quality Assurance Roofing Educational Program.
Superior Protection
Most people think that a new roof is nothing more than just banging up some shingles. But our Master Elite™ Contractors know better-so they recommend GAF's Weather Stopper® 5-part roofing system. The Weather Stopper® system offers you the best protection against a variety of all-too-common roofing problems. Plus, each component of the Weather Stopper® System has earned the prestigious Good Housekeeping Seal!
"Worry-Free" And "Hassle-Free" Warranty Options
Because of their unique training and factory-certified status, roofs installed by Master Elite™ Contractors are eligible for special warranties - all backed by GAF's financial clout as North America's largest roofing manufacturer. After all, a warranty is only as good as the manufacturer that stands behind it. With a GAF roof, you know that you will be covered throughout the warranty period - without fail! Ask your Master Elite™ Contractor about which warranty option would be right for your home. Note: Certification is related only to installation covered by GAF enchanced warranties.
Financing Options
Need assistance? Or just trying to conserve your cash? Your Master Elite™ Contractor may be able to provide a special financing program that makes buying your new roof even more affordable - just ask!
